Recollective allows you to quickly and flexibly transform your research guide into reality using Activities. Each Activity can contain any combination of asynchronous tasks for participants to complete, journals, video IDIs and focus groups or collaborative text chat sessions.
Your research guide determines the sequence and conditions of these Activities, as well as who should complete them and how visible the responses will be.
Choose from a wide variety of question types to solicit both qualitative and quantitative responses when building out your research.
Recollective offers a growing library that includes open text, conversation, photo, video, screen recording, audio, file uploads, image and video markup (with heat maps), card sorting and ranking, grids, fill-the-blank, polls and more!
Recollective Discussions are the perfect way to stimulate collaboration and keep your community highly engaged.
Interact with participants in public or private threaded discussions. Start the topics yourself or let the community create their own. Each topic and response supports text, photos and videos and can be liked or disliked to create a vibrant research conversation.
We are THRILLED with the insights we obtained for our client (and impressed by the gargantuan job your team did to help make it happen, with so many languages in your impressive multi-lingual platform!)
The Recollective AI tools helped us summarise all the participant feedback into clear outcomes in no time at all! The time saved has enabled us to share findings with more stakeholders and have greater influence on the future of the project.
Our clients have said they will never go back to in-person patient advisory meetings after using Recollective. The amount of data and insights we are able to capture through the live meetings and the speed of analysis is unparalleled.
To me, the biggest chore of doing qualitative work is thematic coding and analysis. Using excerpting in Recollective while the study runs was an incredible revelation and time saver, allowing me to have the coding done as the study closes. But now, using the new AI functionality, not only is my time to insight even faster, but it’s also giving me the ability to understand my data in a deeper and wider context that I might have missed previously.
Recollective is the best solution for online communities and qualitative projects. The platform’s usage is very intuitive, and the new features for analyzing the results are helpful in gaining insights and addressing the project’s objectives faster and more efficiently.
We consider the Recollective platform best-in-class and our ultimate technology asset in delivering high impact insights at scale and with speed.
Recollective is the best option when it comes to simplicity and all the segmentation functionalities. The other platforms lack this many segmentation options as you offer.
We have used the Recollective platform to power The Cambridge Panel - our online research community of teachers from around the world - for over two years, and in that relatively short period they have become an invaluable partner.
Our programer understood our objectives and activity guide well, and used her expertise to ensure that our programming would be engaging to participants whilst best answering our research questions. We would love to work with the Recollective team again.
The team went above and beyond to ensure that we felt comfortable with using Recollective. They took time to walk us through each step and made us feel at ease to move forward. Kudos to you all!
Incredible assistance. Your team goes above and beyond. Fast and valuable advice. Service is next level. Appreciate you!

Recollective’s feature set supports a wide range of online qualitative research, including insight communities, bulletin-board studies, diary and ethnography projects, concept and creative tests, UX and product feedback, virtual IDIs and live focus groups. By combining Activities, Discussions, live video, AI‑powered tools and analysis in one platform, researchers can design multi‑phase studies without stitching together separate tools.
Activities turn your research guide into a structured sequence of tasks, journals, live sessions, and follow‑ups for participants to complete. You can mix qualitative and quantitative question types—such as open text, conversation, photos, video, screen recordings, image and video markup, card sorting, ranking, grids, fill‑the‑blank and polls—to capture rich, multi‑modal responses at scale.
Recollective Activities are ideal for structured tasks, guided exercises and step‑by‑step research flows, while Recollective Discussions support more open, social conversations in threaded topics. Using both together lets you pair methodical data collection with ongoing community‑style dialogue, helping you uncover both planned and unexpected insights.
Recollective weaves AI through the platform with AI‑powered transcripts, summaries, theme discovery, Ask AI and the Conversation Task for scalable AI‑moderated interviews. These capabilities help researchers quickly understand large volumes of unstructured data, surface quotes and run human‑like conversations at scale without losing transparency or control over the underlying data.
The Recollective Conversation Task uses an AI moderator that follows your conversation objectives for tone, structure and depth to conduct one‑on‑one interviews with participants in any supported language. Each session produces transcripts, AI summaries, automatic translations and indexed data that can be explored with Recollective Ask AI and other analysis tools, allowing you to run hundreds or thousands of interviews in parallel.
Recollective’s automatic translations allow participants, moderators and clients to interact in their preferred languages within a single, unified study. Activities, questions, comments and responses can be auto‑translated across all supported languages, and teams can export text‑based data in any target language, making it easier to run inclusive, multi‑market research without separate local builds or third‑party translation costs.
Recollective includes coding and excerpting, filters by activity, segment, or person, dynamic word clouds, charts and data tables, plus AI‑driven summaries and exploration via Recollective Ask AI. Researchers can quickly move from raw responses to curated reports and exports in formats like PDF and Excel, sharing evidence‑rich stories with stakeholders without leaving the platform.
Recollective’s onboarding tools support custom profile fields, screening questions, quotas, and segment creation to ensure the right people join each study or community. Participants can be invited via file upload, email, links, or integrations, and segmentation drives personalized activities, targeted analysis and supports incentives throughout the lifecycle of the project.
You can request a tailored demo directly from the Recollective team, who will walk you through the Recollective platform, example studies and relevant features for your use cases. Pricing is typically based on project scope, number of participants and level of services or support your team requires.
